Look sir, (data) droids! -Eric

Yep. That'd be my fault. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You're a pooper of the party variety. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've always wanted to be the one to post this... even though grammatically it bugs me.

Congrats! Nicely done. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nicely done. That's an incredible death trooper. I think you won't be sorry, but you can always build another shiny white -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep. His name is Trooper1 on Mepd. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've often said that I love FISD because I could write "butt" and "cod" all day long without irony. I'm now adding "man girdle" to that list. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ugh. I get so jealous and annoyed at people who can fit into screen accurate armor. Don't worry about it though. I'm a giant TK myself and (until next week) run the detachment. -Eric

I did a "rebuild images" on that gallery. I doubt it will help. Let us know. -Eric

Previous Ingrid thread: What's your TK backstory? -Eric

^What he said. Looks good to me. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Says the woman in the rt-mod shins. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Um? Where are the EP!C boys when we need them?

These feet get great gas mileage. -Eric

I'm a 12 EEEE and the 13 works pretty well. A little bit narrow but the leather is soft and forgiving. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep. Absolutely. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dude man. Your patience and tenacity are admirable. With your attitude you're an absolute poster child for other centurion applicants and you make the program program proud. Thanks for hanging in there. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A) I can't believe I just saw a post from Hyper. A combination of all the Novus products seems to work rather than just the one. See this tutorial. The cleaning one is a little silly but the two different grits of goop make all the difference in the world. Ingrid uses some Maguires product to shine and take scratches out she likes a lot. You can get it from an automotive store but I can never ever remember what it is. Maybe she'llread this and post what it is. For cleaning I wipe the inside of my armor with a rag with simple green mostly because other product smells really bum me out. -Eric

Yeah Juan! Quick before one of us takes a buffer and some polish to your armor (but please do link here once you post on MEPD) -Eric

I believe the reason you're having trouble is that RT-MOD is made for a taller dude. The problem is that your cod (and butt) is too low (har har) and your thighs can't come up high enough. (I'll leave the fact that your shins are taller than most alone) I suggest trying to fix things with strapping before doing any trimming of parts. If you can do two things I think you can get more room for your thighs to come up. First is to shorten your shoulder elastic. That will bring your chest and back up higher and therefore your whole torso up. Second is to try and bring your ab plate up a bit. While that may mess up the alignment of your back pieces it will bring the cod up nicely. Since RT has a separate cod the worst case is that you have to eventually trim the top of your cod a bit. If you do something as drastic as that you may need to do the same to your butt plate. Please do one thing at a time and try it on before you cut anything else. The last resort is doing anything to the legs at all. -Eric

Ed and Julie FTW! -Eric

Outta curiosity... How tall are you? -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He's just saying that because he likes hanging out in bars wearing his armor. -Eric

And stay out of bars or anywhere where you find drunk people. A buddy of mine had to order a new chest plate because his TE2 was punched and cracked by some dumb drunk guy. -Eric
